Greetings,

I've some important news I'd like to share. As some of you are probably aware, there are rumors about me getting married to a certain mare on this site. I'd like to put those rumors to rest.

I am, in fact, absolutely not married! I'm engaged, which if you check the definition in any dictionary, would see that is an entirely different concept. I will be married in a number of months once I have fully graduated with honors.

As for the culprit in question, the mare that foolishly spent all her money on an engagement shoe without checking its size, she's none other than our very own MixaMax. Yes, that idiot galloped all the way to my college and proposed to me in the middle of the yard under the shocked gazes of my fellow students.

Needless to say that I wholeheartedly said yes...and then went to adjust the size of the engagement shoe. ;)

TL; DR: MixaMax proposed, I said "meh, why not?"

Jade

@Jade: You jerk! I spend all night and most of the day writing a post about that! You can't come here, compose something for five minutes and post it! And it's not my fault you have the hooves of a filly! :/

MixaMax

I don't remember you complaining about my hooves before. As for malign the announcement...it was cute the first ten times you sent me those awful drafts, but enough is enough! I used to ridicule you about not being able to write, but now I see I wasn't harsh enough. Better stick to "reviewing" and paperwork from now on.

Jade

@.@ I think I'm going to cry... :~) Max and Jade, I wish you the very very best and more! You've no idea how happy I am for you two! I just...

Edit: Brush has gone into the kitchen where she's crying and eating ice cream. It might be a while before she returns. Good going, Jade. :) Wish I could have been there to see the proposal. - MasterOfThisAstra

Brush

MixaMax: I must say you did the impossible. Never in a thousand years dud I think anypony would find your ugly mug attractive! :P Enjoy your engagement, Max. And you better invite me to the wedding! :D

RRBB

@CodeFilly: Max galloped all the way to the Crystal Empire through snow and sleep and rain. Why weren't you that romantic when you proposed? :(

MightyDragon

@MightyDragon: It was you who proposed, dumdum! ;P Plus, Max just did a one-day session, I engaged on a multi-campaign. ;) Also we're still getting married before them.

CodeFilly

What the fuck?!? I'm gone a week and this is what I return to?!? Good job on breaking stereotypes, you girls. If we keep that up we'll be kicked out of the geek union.

Seriously, though... Wow! Never would have seen this. Luna, was this your doing?

CEOWitch

Don't look at me, I'm just as happy...surprised as you are. They are cute, though :)

Luna

Excellent! All is going according to my plan! Beahahaha!

TheRealLuna

@TheRealLuna: That's my line, sweetie ;)

InItForTheShipping

Say what now? This can happen? I'm telling my brother right after school!

WaterBottle

@all: Nah, it's no biggie. I just thought Jade could use some honey in his life (to balance all the bitterness). Easy peasy Apple squeezy. It's not like I was worried or anything.

MixaMax

To quote my father after Max's visit:

"Jade, the young mare seems nice and everything, but did she seem to you like she was about to faint near the end of our conversation?"

Jade

@Jade: Ha! And who was the one who couldn't say his own name? You actually introduced me as "Max"! Good thing your mother was there to save you with the "so you're the filly I've been hearing about"? :/

MixaMax

So I happen to share things with my parents, sue me! Wait, you can't!

Jade

MixaMax message has been deleted.

Let's never speak of that again.

MixaMax

@MixaMax: Hahagaha! Omg! Did you actually post nudes? Way to go, Max! You're my new number one heroine!

RRBB

@RRBB: Tell me you made a viewgrab!

PaintDrop

I did.

CEOWitch

I did.

MightyDragon

I did.

CodeFilly

@MixaMax: I'm impressed you're so flexible for your age. Tell me, did you use props to get into such a position or did you achieve it naturally? ;)

InItForTheShipping

I miss all the best stuff :(

Edit: Congratulations, Jade and Max! You made me tear up in class :~)

SweetStuff

@MixaMax: I'd say something, but looks like everypony else beat me to it.

Everypony: see what I've condemned myself to spend my life with? Actually, based on your point of view there might be certain advantages.

Jade

@Jade: I dare you to say that to my face!

MixaMax

@MixaMax: You must tell me how you made your tail look like that.

Bob

Leave it to MixaMix to mess things up. I was wondering when this would happen. The start of this thread seemed too tidy. I'm sure glad that Max intervened and set things straight, bringing us back to the quality posts we'd come to expect. :P

Now that I'm done being nasty, congrats you two! What started as a painful online experience and went through a number of hurdles (temp bans, mix-ups, talks of perm bans, Brush getting a dozen nervous breakdowns) has finally become something unique.

Having read Jade's story, I can say I understand what made Max rush through half Equestria to snatch him, but I also know I'd never had the guts to do so.

Be happy, Max & Jade! And may your future goals be as crazy and great as you!

LyraHands

@MixaMax: I want three foals.

Jade

WHAT?!?

MixaMax

@MixaMax: just like the Williams in MC.

Jade

... I'll think about it.
